Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The movement of glucose across the cell membrane through facilitated diffusion one of the form of passive transport because it does not require the energy to transport the glucose molecule across the cell membrane and the transport is along the concentration gradient.

In facilitated diffusion the passage of molecules if facilitated by a carrier protein or a channel protein. The rate of transport of molecules in facilitated diffusion is greater than simple diffusion.  

Through facilitated diffusion, some polar and charged molecules can cross the cell membrane without the expense of energy.

Which food is at a temperature that allows bacteria to grow well ? A) a roast at 125•F (52•c) B) hamburgers at 165•f (74•c) C) p
Lilit [14]

The correct answer is A) A roast at 125°F (52°C)

Explanation:

In general terms, bacteria thrive at warm temperatures; this means bacterial growth is lower at extremely hot/cold temperatures, but it is higher at warm or medium temperatures. Indeed, the ideal temperature for bacteria to develop and reproduce is between 4° C and 60°C. This implies from the options given the roast at 52°C represents an ideal temperature for the growth of bacteria. Also, other options include temperatures above 60°C, and therefore do not allow bacteria to grow well.
